In the video, filmed by TikTok user unidentified woman in first class can be seen with duct tape around her chest and mouth as she attempts to scream at passengers who are departing the plane after it landed.Īmerican Airlines told Business Insider that the passenger “attempted to open the forward boarding door and physically assaulted, bit, and caused injury to a flight attendant.” They went on to say, “we applaud our crew for their professionalism and quick effort to protect those on board.” The woman reportedly started biting, spitting, and attacking flight attendants, which is what ultimately prompted the crew to ” duct tape her mouth and secure her to her seat. Prior to landing a flight attendant told a passenger that a woman was apparently going through a mental breakdown, “had an outburst,” and attempted to get off the plane. “She was saying, ‘I need to get off this plane,’ and she went up to the exits and started banging on the doors, saying, ‘You need to let me off this plane!'” said. Shortly thereafter, the pilot made an announcement in which he said all passengers needed to remain in their seats because of “a bad situation in the plane.” TikTok user noted she saw the flight attendants frantically going up and down the aisle whispering and locking the bathrooms.
This situation occurred on Tuesday, onboard American Airlines flight 1774 from Dallas (DFW) to Charlotte, North Carolina (CLT). Now we’re learning about another incident on American. First, we learned about a security incident on an American Airlines flight from Los Angeles to Miami on Wednesday in which passengers had to keep their hands visible and on their heads for over 45 minutes before landing in Miami when the plane could be met by authorities. But really, these past few months haven’t been great for flight crews. Last week wasn’t American Airlines’ week.
